Milwaukee Record is working in partnership with Urban Cat Coalition—a local organization that’s dedicated to creating a no kill community by humanely reducing the cat population in the Milwaukee area through targeted trap-neuter-return (TNR)—to help find loving homes for area cats. Each week, we plan to highlight a feline friend that’s currently up for adoption by naming it “Milwaukee Record’s Cat Of The Week.” This week: mother and son Onyx and Apollo.

Meet Onyx and Apollo. Sweet as molasses, mama Onyx and her bunny-soft and cheeky baby Apollo love to purr, pounce, and play! Onyx loves quiet attention, gentle pets, laid back wand play and will never say no to a treat. She is all zen—always petite and polite.

Apollo is a little love bug, both with his people and his mama. When he isn’t cuddling with you, he’s snuggling up to mama. He’s a real mama’s boy, and she’s quite fond of him too!

Onyx and Apollo are quick to warm up to their people and Apollo likes everybody. Onyx’s gentle nature would be best-suited for a quieter home, but school-aged and older kids are fine.

And if you are looking for a trio or just one tuxedo beauty, check out Apollo’s sister Gaia, too! She is spunky and independent and would do good in just about any home.

We do require a completed application prior to setting up a Meet & Greet in a foster home. Complete an application today! Si necesitas ayuda en Español, por favor contáctenos a [email protected]. If cats are listed, consider them available. Please do not email or call us asking if they are still available.
